Ajene Williams (born c. 1992) is a sculptor, known for his small-scale, highly-detailed figures of animals.
Williams became interested in art while at Woodlawn High School, where he was taught by Jena Momenee. With her support, he enrolled in a summer art program at Sloss Furnaces and won first prize at the closing exhibition. He returned to Sloss Metal Arts after graduating in 2011 as a paid intern, and is currently artist-in-residence under director Marshall Christie and senior artist-in-residence John Stewart Jackson.
Williams was selected as the featured "Emerging Artist" at the 2016 Magic City Arts Connection.
